Need to talk to someone?
If things feel heavy right now, you don't have to handle it on your own. Talking to someone can help, whether it's about gaming, sleep, school, work, a relationship, or something you can't name yet.
Find a free, confidential helpline in your country:
findahelpline.comAn independent directory of helplines around the world. You can filter by topic and by how you'd like to reach them: phone, text or chat.
If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call your local emergency number now.
Other good first steps
- Tell one person you trust how you're actually doing. A friend, a family member, a teammate.
- If gaming feels out of your control, a doctor or school counsellor is a good, judgement-free place to start.
- Take care of the basics tonight: water, food, and some sleep. The wind-down can help.
